Kiss It Goodbye Challenge: Week 2 check-in

Can't believe another week has already passed and now we are in week 2 of my Kiss It Goodbye Challenge! Things have been pretty busy the past week since I last checked in. We went camping & hiking this weekend (will post pictures another time). Other than the 3 or 4 hour hike (ouchy!), I only exercised once and that was yesterday. Taking a whole week away from c25k hurt when I tried to get back in it. But I did week 2 day 1 and pretty much made it through the whole thing. I'll probably re-do day 1 again since I didn't quite make it through the 90 second segments (made it between 75-80 seconds each time) :) But when I added it up...that's 9 minutes of jogging! That's awesome to me. I can't wait until I'm actually jogging the whole thing. That will be such a HUGE accomplishment. If I can just get my lungs to keep up, I think I'd be doing ok. I had to make myself do it yesterday because my calves still hurt really bad from the hiking.

I did lose a pound this week! Those 2 lbs that had somehow bounced back onto my scale are gone so I can now continue my weight loss count finally. I still have another 23.5 to go before my cruise though. And realistically...if I don't hit that, that's fine...it's just a goal I'm setting for myself. I would rather see myself really succeed in the c25k program than to obsess about weight at this point. Now that that's in writing for all to see...I have to stick by that thought process lol I've lost 77.8lbs as of this morning. Ready to pick it back up and get it going. :)

In other news...I have some house information but I'm not willing to share quite yet. But I will share that we are going to look at a house tomorrow and I have high hopes. It's so adorable. I'm just not sure if the timing and all will work out. I'll update more on that at a later time (probably won't be until the end of the month). Just continue to pray that things go smoothly and quickly and it all works out. I know it will work out if it's supposed to and if it doesn't then something better for us will come along. I completely trust that God knows what we need more than we do.
